Inserter completion methods

The inserter completion method is how RICOH ProcessDirector determines when the inserter controller has finished inserting a job.

There are two completion methods to choose from when you create an inserter controller:

Automatic completion
When RICOH ProcessDirector receives a results file from the inserter controller for the job, it automatically moves the job to the next step in the workflow, which is usually based on the Reconcile step template.

Use this method if the inserter controller creates a job-specific results file after each job has finished insertion. A job-specific results file contains information for only one job. Most inserter controllers create job-specific results files.

Manual completion
An operator must select the Complete Insertion action to start the reconciliation process for the job.

Use this method if the inserter controller does not create a job-specific results file after each job finishes insertion, or if it creates a job-specific results file before the job has finished insertion. Gunther inserter controllers do not create a job-specific results file after each job has finished insertion.
